试题分析:这篇短文主要讲述了作者的朋友在为动物寻找水源的时候发现了油,他卖油买水,而且没有告诉任何人,因为这样会给他的动物以及他的工作带来很大的麻烦,毕竟水和油不可兼得。
【小题1】根据语境,文章以第一人称的语气向读者讲述自己朋友的故事,因此这里指的是“我的一个朋友”。故应填mine。
【小题2】联系下文可知,这里指的是作者的朋友到处为他的动物园寻找动物。look for是固定短语。因为这里是非谓语动词,表示的是周游世界的具体做法,故应填looking。
【小题3】联系下文The money from his books helps him---的描述可知,作者的朋友将他的游历写成书,故应填books。
【小题4】根据语境,这里指的是作者的朋友用卖书得来的钱买动物所需要的食物。pay for sth是固定搭配,故应填pay。
【小题5】联系上下文可知,这是一个岛屿,虽然四周有水,但是岛上水资源不足。故应填though,“虽然……但是……”之意。
【小题6】根据语境,这里指的是作者的朋友上周在找水的时候,发现了油。故应填found,“找到”、“发现”之意,是look for(寻找)的结果。
【小题7】根据下文and a little oil would buy enough water for a long time 的描述可知,作者的朋友的游历和动物园需要钱运转。故应填money。
【小题8】根据语境,这是一个含有条件状语从句的复合句,主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时,指的是如果他把卖油买水的事告诉别人,他的动物园和他的工作都会完蛋。故应填if。
【小题9】联系上下文的描述可知,因为水和油不可兼得,因此他不会告诉任何人。故应填won’t。
【小题10】根据语境,这里指的是油比没有水会给他带来更大的麻烦。bring ---to---是习惯用法,表示“给……带来……”,故应填to。
